Sea Kayaking Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada

BLUEPLANET school group sea kayaking trips are safe, fun & flexible eco adventure tours. Every school sea kayaking trip is tailored to meet the needs of each individual group. These wilderness adventures are offered on the calm, sunny and protected ‘Mediterranean like’ waters of the Gulf Island chain.

Safe

Safety is our highest priority. Our sea kayak guides are highly experienced & professional outdoor leaders with recognized sea kayak guide training, advanced wilderness first aid, CPR level ‘C’, and radio operators’ certification. We are members of and strictly adhere to the SKGABC operating standards and guidelines. Our guide to student ratio is 1:5.

BLUEPLANET guides take care of all aspects of risk management and trip logistics so teachers & chaperones can enjoy our adventure program as much as the students.

Fun & Exciting

Students share laughs and create lifelong bonds while learning new outdoor skills together, like kayak safety & paddling techniques.  Our guides also instruct students on no trace and low impact camping practices. Our flexible ‘School Group Itinerary’ allows for teacher led class time in the field. We also spend time on the important stuff like beach hikes, old growth forest treks and intertidal pool exploration. A school trip that is sure to be their best ever. Our trips are planned with novice paddlers in mind, offering a balance of challenge & sense of achievement.

Accommodating & Flexible

We understand that traveling with groups can offer its own set of challenges and we endeavor to make travel planning as simple as possible. Our flexible itineraries can be suited to your travel arrangements and in some cases dates can be altered when necessary. We can arrange your airport or ferry pick-up and drop off, advise you on accommodations, and provide general helpful advice or local knowledge to aid your planning. Our goal is to make every trip smooth and successful.  We are always available to provide advice during your planning process.

Bring your class for a west coast adventure vacation of discovery & excitement, a wilderness experience they will remember for a lifetime.
